DN8 Italia 458 Ferrari Replica - FOR SALEAs many of you know I own the amazing DN8 Ferrari Italia 458 built by Beemaman, regarded by many including DNA as one of the best custom builds ever built.This beautiful replica Italia 458 Ferrari was professionally built in West Bromwich, UK by a very well-known and experienced custom car builder.
The car I am selling was featured in Complete Kit Car Magazine in August and September 2015 (Copies come with the car) and shown at Stoneleigh Car Show 2016.
This car was only completed just over a year ago, so everything is new, tyres, wheels, brakes, exhaust, wheel hubs and arms, full interior, complete spray job, everything. It looks and smells brand new.
THE ENGINEThis replica 458 has been built on a perfect condition Ford Cougar 2.5L, 24V, Unleaded petrol, manual gears and has only driven 35,800 miles in its life. I have the service history book; this car has been serviced every year.
The engine is perfect and fast and does not need any attention, not a single drop of oil on the engine, very clean indeed.
Full MOT and last serviced only 3 months ago.
THE BODYWORKThe condition of the bodywork and exterior would be considered as perfect. No scratches or dings. The colour is Ferrari Red with anthracite custom spray in-fills.
THE INTERIORThe car has a new replica Ferrari 458 full Black leather interior with red sewn piping and custom anthracite spray job including seats, dash and doors. The carpets and roof are black and supplied with floor mats.
THE WHEELSThe car is supplied with TWO sets of wheels both sprayed in anthracite grey:
Wheels Set One: The wheels that you see in all the pictures and are on the car today, they have a few kerb scratches but nothing major.
Wheel Set Two: A set of four replica Ferrari 458 wheels, brand new and in perfect condition.
SOUND SYSTEMWith the car will come a state of the art music system, door speakers and professionally installed speaker / amp upgrade situated behind the sports seats, sound is amazing.
PRIVATE NUMBER PLATEThe car will be supplied with a private Ferrari style number plate that celebrates Scuderia: ‘S3UDO’ .
MORE INFORMATION AND VIEWINGSI am available anytime to answer all questions you may have via (PM) Private Message, email or by telephone, send me a message and I will send you my details. The car is based in London and I am happy to book viewings when required.
BUYING WITHOUT SEEINGThe car is available for viewings, however if you decide to purchase my car without seeing it first, I can arrange delivery
almost anywhere in the UK by vehicle transporter and will pay the delivery cost.
REASON FOR SALEReady to start my Porsche 991 GT3 custom build and require the funds.
PERSONAL THOUGHTSI bought this car in December 2015 and have loved every minute of it. Because of the build quality it sincerely feels like driving a real Ferrari 458, no shakes or rattles, the exhaust is so well tuned it sounds like a real 458. Not a single person has questioned its authenticity in my ownership and I drive it nearly every weekend.
Since buying I have added a brand new battery and changed the alternator which was required, other than that it looks and drives like a brand new car from the dealership. With absolute sincerity the only known issues are a couple of mini headlight led lights need changing and the central locking can be a bit sticky, I guess both things are basic and very easy to sort out, they never bothered me.
My car has loads of original Ferrari parts and loads of goodies not listed above.
As mentioned above I am currently working on a custom Porsche project, so ready to sell my Ferrari 458.
THE SALE PRICE£32,000 Or Very Very Near Offer.
